Always looking for a story.

I am a storyteller and an editor.
Storytelling is about making connections with your audience — whether its clients, readers, or your employees. As a journalist, I have an eye in finding stories. I also have strong, assertive management skills, as well as proof reading, copy editing, and a keen knowledge of Canadian Press style when it comes to writing. 

Savvy social media and web building skills.
I have successfully used social media tools — like HootSuite — to raise the public profile and awareness of an Alberta-based charity. I can also use social media — including Twitter, Facebook, Instagram, YouTube and Snapchat — to share stories, as well as using tools like ScribbleLive, Storify and Scribd.

A gritty professional journalist who doesn't clock out at the end of the day until the job is done.
​As someone who once covered a busy crime beat in Edmonton — along with a municipal election as a city hall beat reporter — I work hard to get quotes and to make sure all of my stories are accurate and compelling. I also made sure media had accurate info during my role as a media specialist for The Lung Association, Alberta & NWT. 

Open to new ideas and new technology.
​
I know how to adapt. I have learned how to shoot and edit video, along with writing scripts. I have also learned how to do basic HTML coding to adapt to new changes in the media industry. 
I AM AN EXPERIENCED JOURNALIST
